What games (on any platform) have achieved legendary status?
"Legendary" is hard to define. I would think it would encompass several qualities:
1 - They have kept their status in the gamer's pantheon for at least 5 years.
2 - Their status must be acknowledged by a sizable portion of the gaming community. Games like "Hockey Manager" don't count.
3 - Their status can't be on the decline (I'm not even going into the whole Alpha Centauri thing here)
4 - cross platform respect never hurts
Some Choices From My Point Of View...
Half Life 2
C&C Series
Pac Man (I still think that this game is a work of art after such a long time)
World Of Warcraft(A game which showed the 5 year value can be wavied).
